Transitional epithelium is a specialized tissue that can stretch in response to varying degrees of distension or expansion. This tissue is found in the urinary system, including the bladder and ureters, to allow for the storage and elimination of urine. This type of epithelium is not found in the digestive, respiratory, or muscular systems.
